Trump puts all federal DEI workers on leave for now. What we know about his plans to fire them - Trump's order vowed to restore strictly 'merit-based' hiring in the federal government

The article from MSN discusses former President Donald Trump's plans to significantly alter the federal workforce, particularly targeting Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives. Trump has proposed putting all federal DEI workers on leave with the intention of eventually firing them, as part of a broader strategy to dismantle what he and his allies view as "woke" policies within the government. This move is part of a larger "Schedule F" executive order, which would reclassify many federal employees to make it easier to dismiss them. Critics argue this could politicize the civil service, potentially undermining the nonpartisan nature of federal agencies. Trump's allies, including the Heritage Foundation, are preparing lists of conservative candidates to replace these workers, aiming to align the bureaucracy more closely with conservative ideologies. This initiative reflects Trump's ongoing battle against what he perceives as liberal biases in government operations.
